HIGH PERFORMANCE, ONE-COMPONENT, HIGH SOLIDS, UV-STABLE, LIQUID APPLIED POLYURETHANE WATERPROOFING MEMBRANE WITH LOW ODOUR

Decothane® Ultra is a cold-applied, one-component,seamless, highly elastic, UV stable and moisture-triggered polyurethane membrane with significantly reduced odour.  It cures to form a seamless, durable and weather-resistant waterproofing solution for exposed roof areas

  • Low maintenance
  • One component - no mixing, easy and ready to use
  • Cold applied – requires no heat or flame
  • Minimal odour - suitable for odour sensitive projects
  • High solids
  • Seamless membrane
  • Compatible with Sika® Reemat Premium – easy to detail
  • Easily recoated when needed - no stripping required
  • Elastic - retains elasticity even at low temperatures
  • Good adhesion to most substrates – see table
  • Free from rain damage almost immediately on application (see table)
Usage
Decothane® Ultra may only be used by experienced professionals.  For roof waterproofing solutions in both new construction and refurbishment projects
  • For roofs displaying complex detail areas, even when accessibility is limited
  • For cost efficient life cycle extension of failing roofs
  • For odour sensitive areas
  • For insulated and non-insulated roof designs

Dew Point

Beware of condensation.  surface temperature during application and cure must be a minimum of 3°C above dew point.

Substrate Temperature

+2°C min/+60°C max

Substrate Moisture Content

Wood moisture equivalent (wme) (max): <28%

Pot Life

Decothane® Ultra is designed for fast drying.  High temperatures combined with high air humidity will increase the drying process. Thus, material in opened containers should be applied immediately.  In opened containers, the material will form a film within 1 hour.

Waiting Time / Overcoating

~48 hours.  For longer periods ≤ 14 days, the surface must be reactivated with Sika Reactivation Primer.

Times are approximate and will be affected by changing ambient conditions particularly temperature and relative humidity.

*Be aware that heavy rain or rain showers can physically mark or damage the still liquid coating

Application at heavier than recommended thicknesses may result in a prolonged soft feeling to the coating.  This will eventually cure.
